Hello,
I just checked the memory use of BBwin after appr. 60hours without any external tests and its now > 14Mb. I also checked all the .ddl versions and there all 0.8.0 or 0.8.1. (seems normal because it was the first release on that machine). Now i'm gone stop the service, remove all files and reinstall the package, maybe there was something with the installation.
Regards, Ivan

Hello Ivan,
2006/8/25, Ivan Verbeeck <ivan.verbeeck at vmma.be>:
Hello,
Since the release of BBwin 0.8 i installed it on a couple of our Windows 2003 servers as a replacement for the BB Client. On one of the machines i noticed that the memory usage of the BBWin.exe process keeps growing. After appr. 2 weeks it was over the 60Mb. I restarted the service, but after a few days it's back over the
20Mb.
The client checks a few svcs and runs 5 external tests (compiled perl scripts). Any idea what can cause the problem?
Your mail worry me a little bit ...
Could you check that this server is well installed with BBWin 0.8 ? there were a memory leak on the older BBWin releases but BBWin 0.8 should be ok.
Could you post your BBWin.cfg file and tell me what Windows version are you using ?
Sometimes BBWin may need more memory when a lot of events logs are send to the hobbit server.
On my test servers, I run BBWin with a timer of 5 seconds (so it simulates many weeks of monitoring with a few days) for each agent so I can check if memory is growing. It never goes over 7 Mb.
As Rich said, me be try some times to run without the perl externals even if it should never take memory in the BBWin process itselft.
